EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Veri-Site (a division of Strategic IP Information Pte. Ltd, Singapore) tracked 52 of the
most popular pirate sites in Malaysia, in January 2019, to understand the advertisement
network support in place for these sites, and to identify companies advertising on these
sites. This study found that the vast majority (92%) of the sites were ad supported and had
the potential of generating millions of dollars for the companies and individuals
promoting these sites, with their annual page views running into billions, a telling
indication just of how popular these websites are in Malaysia and how openly copyright
laws are being flaunted in the country.
The content theft industry has low barriers to entry and video streaming sites are the new
normal. Malaysia is no exception to this rule. These sites operate using cloud-based
technology that allow pirate networks operators to quickly launch new sites in the event a
site gets blocked or shut down.
Pirate networks typically use multiple ad network services for the placement of
programmatic ads on their sites.
Our key findings include the following:
• The use of ad delivery entities: 92% of the 52 most popular pirate sites in Malaysia
are supported by at least one ad network. The two most visible ad networks in our
study were Google Ad Sense (19 sites) and Google DoubleClick (32 sites), however
we only found 2 mainstream ads placed by these ad networks. The study linking
92%
mainstream ads to ad networks found that Steepo, Bebi Media and Adskeeper placed of the 52 sites in
the highest number of mainstream ads. (Note: since ad networks target ads based on the sample study
search history, it is possible that ads from other entities were not delivered.) were supported by
at least one ad
• Mainstream business advertisers at risk: Low levels of industry awareness locally network
appear to be the reason why ads of legitimate Malaysian businesses appear on pirate
sites. This study found as many as 184 different mainstream brands being advertised
on the 52 most popular pirate sites in Malaysia. Popular brands being advertised
include 11street.my, Perodua, Exabytes, q0010.sg, Amazon and Dell.
• Social impact of advertising: Pirate networks also attract advertising from several
high-risk advertisers from the following sectors: adult dating, pornography,
malware, and gambling. This study found 133 advertisers in the high-risk category.
• Illicit Steaming Devices (“ISDs”)and Mobile Apps: A recent study by YouGov in
Malaysia found that consumers are cutting the cable and moving to ISDs and a recent
study by Veri-Site found 854 sellers offering ‘fully loaded’ ISD boxes on online
marketplaces such as Lazada.com.my, and 11street.my, in Malaysia. These sellers
have been reported and removed successfully by AVIA’s Coalition Against Piracy
(“CAP”) initiative. Additionally, ISDs and mobile devices are enabled by apps;
Veri-Site studied 65 mobile marketplaces and found over 100 pirate apps on Android
and Microsoft marketplaces. Approximately, 62% of the pirate apps were supported
by at least 1 ad network and there was a high prevalence of mainstream ads.3
Our study supports the hypothesis that advertising revenue is the primary driver for pirate
sites. The best way to deter advertising revenue from going to pirate networks would thus Our study supports
appear be for ad agencies, ad networks and advertisers to build comprehensive risk the hypothesis that
management frameworks in order to address this risk proactively. Further, advertisers advertising revenue

for pirate sites.
Introduction
Recent technological changes have impacted the way pirated content is being delivered
to consumers globally, including within Malaysia – a market in which illegal
downloading remains extremely widespread. With the recent crackdown on several
popular torrent networks, such as The Pirate Bay and KickassTorrents, pirate sites have
become more fragmented and rely on a host of ‘deepweb’ and ‘cloud based’
infrastructures to deliver pirated content, which continue to generate millions of dollars
in advertising revenue.
In the past year, Veri-site has identified thousands of sites distributing pirated content. In
January 2019, fresh scans for sites were conducted by Veri-Site to identify pirate sites
dealing in international (primarily English language) content, as well as in vernacular
languages in Malaysia. A sample of 52 pirate sites were selected based on their popularity
and ad network support in order to identify key institutions that are used by pirate sites.
Significant proportion
The findings of this study are alarming not only for content rights owners, who continues of ads on the 52 sites
to lose significant revenue to 'rogue' sites, but also for consumers, as a significant comprises
proportion of ads on these sites comprises ‘malvertisements’ (malicious ads, or ads that ‘malvertisements’
are infected with malware). The majority of mainstream businesses also lose out as their
brands appear alongside ads placed by high-risk industries, such as porn and gambling
sites.
Pirate sites can be categorized, broadly, as follows:
• Video Streaming Sites;
• Index (link) Sites;
• Torrent and Other Peer-to- Peer (P2P) Portals;
• Direct Download Sites (DDL)4

3. Assessment of advertiser composition
There are essentially two kinds of advertisers that appear on piracy websites:
Ÿ Mainstream brands (whose ads appear to have been placed on these sites without the
knowledge of these brand owners);
Ÿ Less reputable advertisers, such as the pornography, adult dating or illegal gambling
industries (collectively known as HRA), that strategically place their ads on piracy
websites (perhaps to cater to the younger demographic that forms the principal user
base of such sites).

high-risk ads.
Mainstream advertisers
313 ads placed by mainstream brands appeared on 42 pirate sites. The breakdown of the
mainstream advertisers shows that media & entertainment, ecommerce, gaming, banking
services, social and IT service sites account for 90% of advertising on pirate sites.

Mainstream brands placing ads on pirate sites accessible in Malaysia include 11street.my,
Perodua, Exabytes, qoo10.sg, Amazon, Honda and Dell. Mainstream ads are also
frequently placed alongside HRA on piracy sites, posing a reputational risk to brand
owners.
Mainstream Brands9
We analysed 525 ads placed on 52 pirate sites (both mainstream and high risk advertising
(“HRA”)) to determine which ad networks placed the ads. Our findings show that ad
networks Steepto, Bebi Media and Adskeeper were the most active ad networks and
responsible for the placement of mainstream ads.

4. Consumer Risk Factors
In addition to generating significant revenue to the detriment of mainstream advertisers
and copyright owners, sites that share stolen content also place consumers at risk. This
threat comes essentially from malware embedded in adverts or within streaming or
torrent files. Our study found that 63% of pirate sites provided links to malware and most
of these ads were displayed alongside mainstream brand ads, in an effort to stay
undetected. In most instances, malware was hidden behind Download or Playbuttons, but
in many instances it was not even necessary to click on a link to trigger the unwanted
download. While most of the malware on these sites comprised adware (software that
automatically displays or downloads advertising material such as banners or pop-ups
when a user is online), 18% contained more dangerous forms of malware. These forms of
malware were not analysed for the purposes of the study.

The user would find it difficult to navigate to the content without ultimately downloading some unwanted software. ii. The video streaming site 123movies.la features ads triggered via a 'download' button which operates as a back door for other software used to potentially launch denial of service attacks, gather personal data, or execute other computer programs.

Mobile Advertising on Illicit Streaming Devices
A recent study by YouGov has revealed an increasing trend of consumers cutting the cable
and migrating to copyright infringing apps preinstalled on TV boxes, also known as Illicit
Streaming Devices (“ISDs”). The YouGov survey, commissioned by AVIA's Coalition
Against Piracy found that 25% of Malaysian consumers use a TV box which can be used
to stream pirated television and video content. The survey also found that of the 25% of
854
sellers were
Malaysian consumers who purchased an illicit streaming device for free streaming, three identified offering
in five (60%) stated that they cancelled all or some of their subscription to legal pay TV 'fully loaded' ISD
services. Unfortunately ISDs are easy to find on various ecommerce marketplaces, social boxes on Malaysian
media and electronic retail outlets. A recent study by Veri-Site found 854 sellers offering marketplaces.
'fully loaded' ISD boxes on online marketplaces such as Lazada.com.my, and
11street.my, in Malaysia.

networks. There was high prevalence of mainstream ads on 62 mobile apps, indicating
that mobile ad networks need to do more to block advertising to pirate apps.17

CONCLUSION
This study clearly establishes that the top 52 piracy sites in Malaysia are largely supported
by advertising revenue. Most pirate sites utilize ad networks to access all types of
advertisers - big brands (both international and local), gambling sites, e-commerce sites,
adult dating sites and unregulated products sites. Ad Networks appear to be exerting very
weak control, if at all, when adding sites to their ad networks, thus allowing piracy to
thrive. The study also highlights an alarming level of mainstream brands advertising on
mobile applications, highlighting the need to address the same issues with mobile ad
networks. While there is no silver bullet to fight piracy, our study has underlined the
need for content rights owners, brands, and regulators to work together to reduce piracy
by blocking their primary source of income, namely ad-generated revenue.19
